Our education system needs immediate reforms. The call was made by experts ahead of the international youth day that focused on the topic that addressed plethoric upsurge of candidates in the recent years that have migrated to foreign nationals for pursuing higher education.
The United Nations has also included brain drain issue as its theme for the current year. The key deterrents responsible for the upsurge are supposed to be unemployment and better education prospects. Nevertheless, exposure and stratospheric education costs were the initial reasons compelling the move. However, employment avenues and improved standards of life in the west accounts for the retention of the migrants in these countries.
Andhra Pradesh could be quoted as good example as several inhabitants left for the US despite declining rupee and the figures continue growing. “As many as 90 percent of students who go abroad for higher studies do not come back. There is a huge difference between the education system in our country and abroad”, quoted the dean of Ace Engineering College, Prof Lakshmana Rao.
